Therefore, to sum up, Zhou An did not plan to invite the master in his previous life, but wanted to find another young chef he was familiar with.

This person should also work at the Regent Hotel now, and his current position should be the chef of the staff meal at the Regent Hotel.

Everyone in the industry knows that the status of the chef who cooks staff meals is not as good as that of a chef who cooks for guests.

Therefore, there are very few good dishes for staff meals, because it is basically impossible for a chef with good skills to cook staff meals.

The salary of the staff chef is also the lowest among all the chefs, and sometimes it is not as high as the salary of the first brother of the board.

By the way, the person Zhou An is looking for is named Tan Guang, when they worked together back then, everyone used to call him Ah Guang.

According to Zhou An's understanding, Tan Guang is not a local, he is from Guangdong Province, and his Mandarin is a bit unusual, and he likes to make himself some herbal tea to drink.

It stands to reason that with Zhou An's requirements for the quality of the dishes, even if he wants to invite someone, he will not go to a chef who cooks staff meals.

But Tan Guang is different!

This person is a young chef who has the strictest requirements for himself and his dishes in Zhou An's chef career.

Although working in the kitchen with heavy oil smoke, Tan Guang is as clean as a pseudo-lady whether it is the work clothes, aprons, rags, or clothes and shoes after work.

But the problem is, he's not a mother!

The size is the same as most people in Guangdong Province, not tall, less than one meter seven, not fat or thin, can be described as sturdy, always with a short hair of no more than three millimeters, the first thing to do after work every day is to go to the staff bathroom to take a shower, as long as there is a little water stain or oil stain on the hand, never touch the mobile phone of a person.

When cooking vegetables, even if there is a shredded vegetable fried with a little bit of paste, he will frown and pick it out, if there are a few more fried paste, he will immediately pour it into the trash can and shout for a new side dish.

His high demands, which are almost obsessive-compulsive, are often both speechless and admirable, because more than nine out of ten chefs can't be as strict as him.

When Zhou An was an apprentice in the kitchen of the Regent Hotel, he found that the head chef was very helpless to Tan Guang, but he couldn't find a reason to talk about him.

Sometimes, Tan Guang poured a freshly fried dish into the trash can in front of the head chef, and the head chef obviously opened his mouth to say a few words to him, but every time he saw Tan Guang frowning and a serious expression, the head chef swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

What reason is there to accuse a chef of holding his dishes to a high standard?

By the way, at that time, Tan Guang was no longer cooking staff meals, but was specifically responsible for stir-frying vegetarian dishes, and his status had risen, and he could probably reach five stoves.

Zhou An came to find this person today, and what he liked was this person's morbidly high requirements for himself and the dishes.

If you can invite this person to make a secondary stove for yourself, Zhou An will be very relieved of the dishes in the store.

At the same time, Zhou An also had another thought - I hope that after Tan Guang invited him to the store, others can learn a little professionalism from him, even if it is only a little bit of learning, Zhou An believes that the hygiene and staff quality of fish bite sheep and violent crayfish will be improved.

If you want to run a good restaurant, having the right chef is of course the most important thing.

Zhou An has never opened a restaurant, but he firmly believes in one thing: if he can always make most customers feel that they are worth the money after entering the store, then his store, no matter how small, will not be bad!

He was sure that he could dig Tan Guang and dig Tan Guang from the three-star Regent Hotel to his own small shop.

Confidence stems from his knowledge of Tan Guang.

is not only in terms of personality, but also Tan Guang's emotional journey in Yinma County.

Tan Guang is a restrained character, he doesn't talk much, and the relationship with most of the chefs of the Regent Hotel is neither far nor close, Zhou An admired his high requirements for himself and the dishes back then, plus Tan Guang was the youngest chef in charge of the Regent Hotel at that time, so, when he was fine, Zhou An liked to come to him, and if he didn't understand something, he also liked to ask Tan Guang for advice.

Although Tan Guang did not smile, he would answer every question of Zhou An seriously.

Over time, the relationship between the two became closer.

Then, one year, when the New Year was approaching, one day after work, Tan Guang suddenly asked Zhou An very rarely if he had time?

Zhou An replied yes.

Tan Guang asked him again if he would like to go and have two drinks together.

Tan Guang is the master chef, Zhou An is an apprentice to the lotus, and he usually asks Tan Guang so many cooking problems, Tan Guang called him to drink with him for the first time, can he not go?

So, he followed in a daze.

The reason why he was stunned was because he had never heard that Tan Guang had the habit of drinking, let alone who Tan Guang invited to drink.

The two came to a dog meat restaurant that was open at night, ordered a dog meat pot boy, two stir-fried dishes, a peanut rice, and Tan Guang asked for a bottle of wine.

Zhou An remembered clearly that Tan Guang wanted Gujing Light and Elegant that time.

It was that time when they drank together, he heard from Tan Guang about a relationship that Tan Guang had just ended, and he also heard about many private things about Tan Guang.

For example, he came to Yinma County with his master to apprentice, but two years later, his master left his job, and before leaving, he arranged for him to serve dishes in another small restaurant.

For example, they pay attention to having more children and more blessings in Guangdong Province, he has seven brothers and sisters, and he laughs at himself as many as the number of gourd babies.

Tan Guang, who drank wine that night, confided in his heart, saying that he thought Yinma County was very good, and he didn't plan to go back to Guangdong Province, saying that people in Guangdong Province were rich, but in fact, people like him came from a rural area, and there were many brothers and sisters in the family, so he didn't have any money at all, and he couldn't even afford to marry his daughter-in-law when he went back.

When it came to the issue of marrying a daughter-in-law, Zhou An naturally asked him if he had talked about one in Yinma County?

"It's been talked about! Three years of relationship, just split today!"

Tan Guang seemed to say this indifferently at that time, which impressed Zhou An, because Tan Guang's tone and expression at that time were too bland, as if he was casually commenting on a dish - "Firewood, the fire is too big when you fry it, and the water is gone!"

Zhou An asked the reason for the breakup.

Tan Guang probably wanted to talk to someone that night, he said that the woman was a local, and he had a good relationship with him, and his only request was to buy a house locally.

He has been saving money in a planned way since they were together, and he has already saved most of it this year, and it is estimated that it will be about the same for another two years.

But recently, one of his younger sisters was seriously ill, and the family couldn't make up enough money for medical expenses, so she asked him to take the money, and he took it, and the matter was known to his girlfriend, and then they broke up.

At that time, there was another thing that impressed Zhou An, that is, Tan Guang suddenly took out his mobile phone and found Liang Jingru's "Happy Breakup" to play.

"Happy breakup!"

During the song, Tan Guang raised his glass to signal Zhou An.
